A Dorset Christmas Market
A Tank Museum may not be the first place you’d expect to find a Christmas market, but here in Dorset we do things differently! This family-friendly celebration brings the magic of Christmas to life with over 70 artisan stalls showcasing unique gifts, festive treats, and local crafts. Visitors can enjoy live entertainment, Christmas-themed activities and trails, and even meet Santa as he arrives in a real tank!
